Yeah, I can see how that would help, I've always had a better reading/written comprehension than aural/spoken comprehension with other languages so fiction's a great way to build vocabulary without negotiating unfamiliar accents.
Personally I'm learning Gaelic at the moment and being a minority language its really quite hard to find fiction resources as it tends towards either being aimed at small children or at adult native speakers with nothing in between. I've started writing fanfic in Gaelic for practice but I've not found any to read yet. :(
